Dragon/Behemoth/Leviathan
I have not read all the responses, so I don't know if these were mentioned.
Most Christians find a careful search of the scriptures distasteful and let someone else tell them what someone else thinks they need to know. This is, of course, dangerous.
Dragon - is mentioned 28 times in the Bible
Behemoth - is described in Job 40:15-24
Leviathan - is described in Job 41; Psalm 104:25,26; Isa.:27:1
Carbon-dating is an inexact science, and millions of years are, actually, rather illogical.

Or, do a little research of your own.

Terrible Lizard or dinosaur was coined in the 1840s by a Brit named Richard Owen.
as for the time-frames - as you wish.

I'm not a scientist, but show me 100% accuracy across the board, I'm with you.

I honor Redwolf, a War Chief of the Cherokee, who is my father, brother, friend, and chief. It took me a time to find a wolf.

Well, if a double-standard has to be something, blatant is good.
I would NEVER even dream of asking proof for God or looking for it. That simply will never happen, and is simply based on the faith requirement. God requires that I have faith in his existence. Proof would crumble that premise.
But science is not based on faith. It's based on facts, I understand. Therefore, I asked for 100% accuracy, after all, it is your scientific contentions you use to say there is no God. I'm so sorry if I was not clear.
